   BoldFont={Fira Sans},

+If you want to have `\operatorname`, `\mathrm`, and company in the Fira font as well, then you'll need to set `\setmainfont` as well.
+
+Note that there is only a beta version of the Fira Math Light font available and that it is not at all complete, so unfortunately there is no good way to get a matching math font for Fira Sans Light at the moment. (Otherwise we could use **unicode-maths** and `Fira Math Light`). This I think is another good argument for why Fira should not be set as the default font for the theme.

 ### No More Automatic Paragraph Spacing
 
 Unlike standard Beamer, in which `\parskip` (paragraph spacing, roughly speaking) is set to zero, Metropolis instead sets it to 0.5 em units. This means that in Metropolis, you don't need to sprinkle `\medskip` (or whatever you use for paragraph spacing) in your slides to have them neatly separated.
